Re: Lockdown
Yep, exactly what's happening. They just can't bring themselves to put health first, second and third - instead of the economy. In the long run, the economy would recover better if the chance of virus recurrence was properly snuffed out. Which means complete lockdown, not this half-arsed version. Trump is doing the same thing, but worse, in the US. He is basically guilty of manslaughter by not taking the measures he should be taking to save lives. You don't have to pull the trigger to kill someone at a time like this, you just have to not make the vital decisions that you are responsible for taking.
I was watching UK breakfast TV earlier and they zoomed in from above to a busy construction site in London. When they zoomed back out I immediately recognized the Battersea Power Station redevelopment. This is a large project to build luxury penthouse apartments, priced from £500k - £3 million each. This is NOT essential work and Johnson should have closed it down. Those workers share minibuses to site, travel on the tube, work closely together all day and return to their families. They need to be paid to stay at home!

Re: Lockdown
Not a great fan of the Scottish government, but fair dues they've said that all non-essential building is to stop.daveuprite wrote: ↑Wed Mar 25, 2020 8:05 amYep, exactly what's happening.

And I agree that Trump appears to be only interested in his personal polling ratings.
